DONK magazine has appeared on the stands in 7-11 up here in Toronto. I've yet to see any in the streets, though up here it makes sense - ground clearance for the snow.
On that note, I took my summer tires in to get swapped at the local tire change place and the manager sold me a set of used original Benz rims that were in better condition than my own. Now I've finally got a summer and winter set of rims! Sweet.

A Donk is an older Impala (the impala emblem has been rechristened a donkey, hence "donk"), a Box is the squarish version, mid 80s?, and the bubble is the more rounded full-size version. Scrapin da sky is da word yo. When you donk your ride, you put a 4 or 6 or 8" lift on it, some 22s or 24s or even 26s (twennytwos or twennyfos or twennysixes) and a serious garish paint job wif some bling unomisane. They actually look kinda cool. It appears to have started as a southern phenomenon, white boys using their jacked up truck knowledge and bros doin some stylin, now is showing up among the low-rider community as another style. I've seen a few the last coupla months here in Htown, driven by some bros and vatos. The paint job and wheels are the key factors.
